I had a dream the sun moon and eleven stars bowed to me. Told my brothers in good
Faith with no reason to be proud.
They plotted against me then tried to hurt me.
Sold me to a distant land.
They say "Here comes the dreamer", who becomes redeemer,
Little did I know that dream was meant for me.
It was meant for me.
I was betrayed by my father's sons.
I was framed by my father's sons.
What do they say I did so wrong.
What I speak is true and this you'll know. And this you'll know.
In the foreign land all who saw me
Were pleased with my works.
My master's wife then grabbed my shirt.
Tried to force me to sleep with her.
She came before me imposing upon me,
Saying no one will know.
I had to escape not to destroy my faith.
I was arrested and thrown into jail.
Oh no! Oh No!!
I was betrayed by my master's wife.
I was framed by my master's wife.
What do they say I did so wrong.
What I speak is true.
I was betrayed by my father's sons.
I was framed by master's wife.
What do they say I did so wrong.
What I speak is true and this you will know.
And this you'll know.
Yeah I had a dream
Oh! I had a dream
That dream was meant for me.
